Revenge of the Blue Phoenix

Use joystick (or emulator arrow keys, fire button to shoot). You'll either need an atari800+ or emulator such as Altirra.exe to play it.

When you need more enemies, hit space bar. (and go phoenix mode). After 10 kills you 'evolve'. This project was meant for a retro game jam, I did not have enough time to finish and polish. It is more of a demo and in the interest of the jam decided to release an unfinished project. 

Feel free to goad me on to finish it. Missing are the following:

Full game doc/planning

Sound effects, music

Backstory
